S8 E24: Grayden Siepmann and the Bulldogs are cooking

Bulldog Insider

About

The second part of a "double dog week" is here for the Bulldog Insider podcast with another episode, this one featuring freshman defenseman Grayden Siepmann of the UMD mens team. The native of Langley, British Columbia, Canada has five goals and seven assists in 33 games this season.

Siepmann joins Bulldog Insider co-hosts Matt Wellens and Zach Schneider to discuss his background in hockey, his path to UMD, how he ended up with number 37, his passion for cooking, who is the "MVP" of his living situation with teammates as roommates, and much more.

The Bulldogs face North Dakota on the road on Saturday at 6:07 PM in an NCHC semifinal showdown. As Wellens writes, UMD is considered a lock to make the 16-team NCAA Tournament.

Bulldog Insider is co-hosted by Matt Wellens and Zach Schneider. Episodes are edited and produced by Duluth News Tribune digital producers Dan Williamson and Wyatt Buckner.
